Background
My nation is almost a complete dictatorship, it has no enshrined Civil Rights, however malevolent dictators have been repeatedly overthrown by the nation's heavily modernised and highly trained army. The army is a servant of the dictator but has kept the power to remove the said ruler from power, being an independent institution. Of course this raises the issue of a military coup.
Civilians are also able to equip themselves with firearms, however they are limited to prevent them from overpowering the police force. This helps prevent complete domination by the military by the fact that they will fight with competence against unwanted oppression (Muratonian citizens undergo rigorous training and psychological trials before they are allowed use of firearms). Another aspect is that the army still needs the support of the citizenry and if they aren't in favour of this coup then they will perform a massive general strike (similar to the real world March 1920 strike of Berlin) which will prevent the military from seizing complete power.
The political system in Muratonia has been described as a "democratically elected dictatorship". The Monarch rules with complete and total dominion, and with the final say on issue he personally addresses. His cabinet have strict guidelines and act upon his behalf, the King may discharge a member of cabinet at any given time.
The king is elected, rather than given the title upon the death of a parent. 3 Major parties exist in Muratonia and the citizens vote every 7 years upon whether to support the Monarch or cast a vote of no confidence. If the vote goes to the no confidence stage the Monarch is asked by the most senior ranking General, The Prime General, to step down. If the Monarch refuses then the military initiate an attack upon the palace and eliminate all those who will not surrender including the Monarch. If they agree to step down then they are allowed seven days before they must leave. The citizens then must vote for the party who they wish to become their "benevolent dictator".
The reason for this is because of Muratonia's past. 400 years ago,the country was torn apart by revolts and bureaucratic ineptitude before a Bill was passed allowing the President at the time emergency powers. This Bill allowed the President to effectively quell most rebellions and get the economy back on track. These powers were handed to the next ruler and the next one after that until finally forming the basis of government you see today.
The issue
Muratonia has a few colonies scattered across the World. One of these is a large Island called Herlic. Back in 1730, Muratonian settlers fought and triumphed over a foreign power who had also tried to settle on the island. Herlic was then fully under Muratonian control.
The people of Herlic are now asking for their independence which the King has refused to grant on the grounds that nearly 42% of the population are of Muratonian descent compared to 53% that are Herlican. This has caused massive unrest on the island with Herlicans and Muratonians fighting in the streets and Muratonian soldiers being picked off by Guerrilla fighters in the Island's extensive jungles.
At home, there has been growing support for a new democratic party that promise to end the dictatorial ways of the current Administration and install a "true democracy for Muratonia. The Muratonia Democratic Party also wish to relinquish all colonies and grant them independence and support.
The RP
I would like this is be a really difficult situation for my Kingdom, perhaps even ending with a total overthrow of the current political system. I also want this to attract foreign attention, either for or against the kingdom and it's regime.
Some could argue against for keeping colonies and the political system, while some side with the King for showing defiance and so called "Intelligence" (it's how the king justifies his decisions, I'm not saying he isn't intelligent because he is damn smart but other leaders could find him foolish while some a genius).
I hope the NS community will discuss this with me, raise any issues and hopefully create a fantastic RP
Thank you in advance.
